The first release candidate build of Windows Package Manager 1.7 has been made available by Microsoft for Windows 10 (1809+) and Windows 11.
Windows Package Manager 1.7.10514
This release represents our first Windows Package Manager 1.7 release candidate build for Windows 10 (1809+), and Windows 11. Experimental features have been disabled in this release.
Features
- The
winget repair
command is now available and can be used to repair a package that is having issues.- Winget can enable Windows Features as a package dependency.
- Winget now supports rebooting your machine if the installer return code indicates that a reboot is required. You can do this by passing the
--allow-reboot
flag.- WinGet configuration can accept a URL rather than only a local file.
- Performance improvements to be more network efficient with the CDN along with better flows to handle scenarios with elevation requirements.
- Support for Entra Id authentication (formerly Azure Active Directory) for private REST sources. Note: The REST source reference implementation still needs to be updated.
